Not sure if others consider educational grants government assistance, but I do.

California Grants in Aid paid for the last two years of my undergraduate education and provided a living stipend so I didn't have to work much while in school. I've also accepted federal pell grants.

I'm willing to look into government funding when I realize that I could use some help.

You can't always get a job somewhere.

Sometimes the universe just doesn't give you a chance. The programs are there to help you get on your feet. Then you can fly without pent up debt when you're in a better place.
